Upper estimate price exceeded by 72 %.
The work The Hill (Sydney Cricket Ground) by Russell Drysdale was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 9,341.96), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 72%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Russell Drysdale achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian rocky Mccormack in August 2008 with an auction result of AUD 1,890,000.00 (€ 1,103,283.80).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 72 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Hill (Sydney Cricket Ground) von Russell Drysdale kam im Dezember 2007 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 9.341,96) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 72%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Russell Drysdale erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian rocky Mccormack im August 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 1.890.000,00 (€ 1.103.283,80).
